Aminah (Between Ex & Future)

Dreamtime

Aminah let out a long sigh, not feeling that the incident had already passed five years. Although not completely forgotten, but Aminah was able to let go.

Aminah flipped, enjoying her silent night alone.

"Tumben tonight I have trouble sleeping. What time is it?" Aminah.

And, sure enough, it turns out the clock has shown at two in the morning and Aminah still does not feel sleepy.

The news of Dani who has divorced and came to his home to meet his parents, Pak Hasan and Bu Wati raises many questions in the heart of Aminah.

'What exactly happened? Why did she get divorced? Why did he come home? Does Dani still love me? But, said Mother, she did not ask me at all. Argh!' aminah asked in her heart while scrambling her own hair.

Aminah sat down and again ruffled her hair in annoyance.

'Come, Aminah. Dani is in the past, and she also has a more important job to think about than you. Come on, come on, come on, think normally and healthily. Forget, forget, forget. You certainly can.' said Aminah again in the heart.

Aminah tried to regulate her breathing and calm herself.

"Okay, now go to sleep and forget about Dani. And remember, you are not married not because you still hope for her, but because ...." Aminah's speech stopped.

Aminah thought for a moment, trying to find the right reason.

"Because ... do not want to. Is true! Marriage is not a race!" Further.

Aminah continues to entertain herself in order to keep thinking positively and calmly.

Aminah then dropped her body on the bed, took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. Then the two try to close their eyes and try to sleep.

When Aminah opened the door, she saw Dani who seemed to have been waiting for her on the porch. Aminah saw something soft in her eyes, and her sweet smile, relaxed all the longings that Aminah had held before.

Then, he smiled at Aminah, his lips as if chirping so affectionately.

"Yuk." Dani's Saying.

Aminah had no idea where she was going to walk with him. A warm twilight now accompanied their meeting. The flying birds flapped their wings without any weight, the wind blew slowly then disappeared. There are passing by, new cars from small to large sizes pass by.

They walked on an old bridge. Passing the river, see antique lights and classic European-style sculptures, are on the left and right sides of the bridge. All of this completes their meeting.

Accompanied by the warm twilight, the sunlight came down reflecting his light in Dani's face. Aminah breathes the scent of beauty. They continued to walk, combing the city streets that served the still beautiful air while chatting a word or two. Remembering their past, until the moment when their farewell arrived.

This romantic journey did not last so long, even though the sky was already yellowing golden. In Aminah, he realized one very important thing. Because what he went through was impossible for him.

Walking with Dani, when dusk arrived, down every corner of the city made Aminah mutter to herself.

At once Aminah stopped her steps for a moment and thought. His instincts said that this was a dream!

Aminah began to pinch her cheeks with all her might, and she felt no pain even though her face had been pinched by my own finger. After continuing to pinch, it felt that the pain was indeed not there. It appeared in Aminah's mind that after she pinched her face she would feel pain.

However, until the third time Aminah really convinced herself that all of that was a dream!

In Aminah's heart murmured, "Thank God for the current meeting, which turned out to be just a dream."

Seriate....
